In exercising, more calories are burned and it is likely permanent weight loss. Burning calories through exercise is very effective and it is more noticeable and can sustain more weight loss. The question of which exercise can burn more calories-the answer will depend entirely to the goal and the status of health of the person. We can’t just let a 65 years old woman go on spinning. If we do, be sure that the paramedics are ready as well as the ambulance. In achieving the fitness level that we want, we have to be realistic as well as goal oriented. It will commence from a level that is tolerable to us and gradually increase the tempo as we progress every day.
Ideally, it is advisable to do exercise at least 3 to 5 times a week for at least one hour a day. This should be gradual and slow pace for the starters to avoid any injury and health problems. In this way, we avoid straining the body too much and avoid fatigue which will be the result of too much exercise.
The experts say that, if we exercise in slow pace like leisurely biking is the best way to burn calories from the fats. By doing slow pace biking or leisure biking, 80 percent of calories from fats is burn and 20 percent from stored carbohydrates. If we go faster and harder on our exercise it will burn more calories from carbohydrates than the fats. As a beginner in exercise it is better to opt for slow pace exercise than the faster and harder one to sustain more and avoid fatigue; it should be slow and steady. This is very ideal for the beginners because we can see more effect and great outcome in our body with the slow pace exercise and can be a greater motivator than the fast, high intensity, high impact workout. It is true that with high impact exercise we burn more calories but we need to burn the calories from the fats first to get rid of unwanted body fats.
